| Posted: 17 Jul 2012 09:29 AM PDT Burning Cup offers a solution to reheating or microwaving your tepid coffee (or beverage) and losing its flavor. The cup prevents the drink from cooling down due to heat release to the outside. It uses sodium acetate to get the heat going. This what the designer says, "The sodium acetate contained in the inside of the cup design can regulate the heat of beverage. The liquid solution breaks the balance of liquid state with a tiny impact and hardens it solid, and it then generates heat momentarily." This heat generated by such an impact maintains the temperature of the beverage in the cup for a longer period of time. Every time you feel the beverage going a bit cold, simply crackle the sodium acetate from the outside once again and restart the heating process. Designer: Ryan Jongwoo Choi - Related posts:

| Posted: 17 Jul 2012 09:20 AM PDT Until the electric car is perfected, here’s a design that might be a bit more practical for city-goers. Powered by modern hydrogen fuel cell technology, the H2Scoot provides a clean and easy way of getting around urban spaces. Only slightly bigger than a Razor scooter, the compact design features rear steering for increased maneuverability, a lightweight monocoque carbon fiber body and customizable telescopic steering.

| Posted: 17 Jul 2012 06:10 AM PDT Wave Paint Bucket is a paint-can redesign that is done pretty impressively. What you have is a lid that is fashioned with a wave and the paint tin that features a groove around the rim. It's been done before, but this is a refined version. Essentially, the groove kinda doubles up as a funnel to pour out the paint, the lid doubles up as a palette and the functional style of opening the can makes the whole user experience a lot better! Super! Designers: Yin-Kai Lee, Fu-Yu Cai and Shuo-Ren Shy - Related posts:

| Posted: 17 Jul 2012 12:05 AM PDT Totally had one of those “are you kidding me?” moments when I saw this! The redesigned Solid Gray backpack is a more rigid version of it’s slack counterparts. The futuristic, stealth-style folding bag is made out of PP-C and is extremely light and strong but is also flexible enough to conform to the wearers back. With clever compartments, secure spots for a laptop or tablet, and durability that will last a lifetime, it’s the only backpack you’ll ever need. Not to mention… it’s f&@%ing sexy!

| Posted: 17 Jul 2012 12:01 AM PDT Inspired by the natural reduction of the skeletal system, the Pelleossa chair’s name literally translates to “skin and bones.” The handcrafted wood and stretched fabric chair combines the best of traditional workmanship and modern production efficiency. Each chair is made with a conventional “turn and copy” technique, where the repetition of only two diameters (30mm max and 15mm min) optimizes both the usable material Designer: Francesco Faccin - Related posts:
